There's lots of discussions around remote start being illegal in Australia.
At best it seems to be a very grey area, so it's probably easier for car makers to just steer clear of it.

Then everyone comes along and says "my blah has remote start" or "blah sells a product..." and on it goes.

In our climate, yeah, sometimes it might be nice to turn on the aircon before getting in on a 40 degree day, but, open the door, start the car, stand under a tree for a minute.

Meh.

*sigh* didn't want to get into a full discussion again since it has been done to death on other forums as well as this one.

See my comment above about someone always saying its legal because their blah blah has it...

In Australia it is grey, apparently in Europe it is illegal, so we don't get it.

Don't know how it is grey if a car that is locally devolved and built can have it.. Pretty sure they would have had to guarantee it was more than grey to include it. Could understand what you are saying if you were referring to some cars available here from overseas manufacturers.

Also I take it you don't live anywhere where it is regularly hot? Remote start would be damn nice in the NT, trust me. But anyways yes it's dissapointing that it is another feature we miss out on, but of all them, this is provable the one I am least concerned about.

I read somewhere that remote start is a core integration with Sync 3 - could it be that the only reason we don't have it cause we still get Sync 2?

Nothing to do with sync - remote start is available on all of US Mustangs
